It's literally so annoying! I am so determined to get in this year I just hope everything goes better than I expected, is that for sure? Countdown is on now then haha

Yeah think the onformation came from someone at queens plus it says it on the timeline sheet you would of got when you were notified they had received your application!! There has also been people on this forum that have been told they were unsuccessful a few days after the interview!! However if you don't hear don't assume you have got a place as you could be on the reserve list!! Hope this helps :smile:

Hey folks, I was chatting to someone today who told me, that if u don't hear 2 weeks after interview u have passed, but as there still interviewing, other people may score higher, so places aren't given out till late April early May which sounds right to me.
So for all use guys past 2 weeks, nearly there.
I expect a n email from ucas on Monday saying unsuccessful.

Rory. :smile:

Do you guys thinks it's harder for younger ones to get in??

Interviews have been going on for a while now there is bound to be a high amount of people applying this year..

I think if they think your personal experience and interview goes well, it doesn't matter what age you are. Obviously I suppose depending on people's personal experiences, any age could be suitable! But its a very pressurized course so I think thats why sometimes its less likely younger people dont get in...but that's not fair to generalise everyone haha!

I got onto the reserve list when I was straight out of school, but I think everyone has a fair chance regardless of age!! :smile:

i'm a schoolleaver and i think its harder! i know older people (ones more so in their late 30's) who have got in to the degree and they have all said that its harder for young ones as we dont have as much life/work experience which is crucial for a SW career but i think if you put yourself out there and try and get experience along with the personality, itll be easier

I'm 17 turning 18 soon I really want into this course so much, I know a few people who have tried to get in and when they asked for feedback it came down to age and not enough experience so I hope that won't be one of the factors :/

Ive read on previous posts from last year and year before that interviwes normally go on til first second week april then they take few weeks to go thru them an decide as i doubt they would be able to do that in one week and also in previous yeara people have heard around the last week of april, just depends i guess on numbers..
